Benefits of my job

When Indonesians co-workers visit the office, we all get treated to free po-boys from Mother's.

Dump Joe Lieberman

Via Wonkette:

An angry Connecticut Democrat says that he will rent a very large floating rat and display it outside the XCel Energy Center in St. Paul if Joe Lieberman decides to attend the Republican National Convention.

The guy's also started a webpage: DumpJoe.com, which contains hillarious pictures of Joe and GWB. I can't wait until Connecticut has another shot at dumping Joe.

Sen. Shepherd Douche Watch

More updates:

Sen. Shepherd is now on house arrest, and the victim has recanted, but they are still going to prosecute because the evidence backs up her original story.

Additionally:

According to court documents, Sen. Shepherd also was arrested in 2000 for simple battery and harassing phone calls involving a different woman -- a scenario similar to what deputies say happened with Ms. Ashford.

Douche.

Disney's New Princess

I knew she was Black, but I didn't realize she's from New Orleans...

via Oliver Willis, the trailer:



I have three wishes for this movie:

1. The accents aren't all that ridiculous as the lightening bug
2. They don't have any songs by Rebirth
3. They manage to not be racist

Hopefully all my wishes will be granted.

Dept of Unwanted Endorsements

Phil Spector's endorsement of Obama is probably going to help as much as OJ's endorsement of Hillary Clinton.

Damned if you do...

Here is Mark Halperin's summary of his interview on MSNBC's Morning Joe:

On MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Mark Halperin said the McCain team is working to portray Obama as foreign, elitist, liberal and out-of-touch, even if “it’s a stretch” at times. Repeated that the election will be a referendum on Obama, said Obama could lose if he seems too presumptuous and presidential before voters weigh in.

So... it would be a problem if he were "too presidential." Funny how that starts being a problem when the black man starts running for President. Also, it's funny how the guy who just finished paying off his college bills is the out-of-touch elitist, whereas the guy with eight houses represents the "common man".

WaPo Cover

I just love how next to the article there is a huge picture of Sen. Stevens (R-AK). Birds of a feather...
